Hi Sara. These scams came through my e-mails. I really can't believe they keep trying this scam. It's really very old hat now. But people are very greedy.

Try this ,, I received a check in the male for 3000.00 dollars. Yes the check was real, The letter stated to cash the check take 500 of it and shop at wallmart or kmart or a discount store of my choosing... then fill out the paper work , also keep 300 for my pay and send the 2,200.00 back to the address ( wich is p.o. box). I called the bank that was on the check and yes there is account in that name , but there is a red flag inwich if I brought the check in they would have to file it and not cash it there have been bogus checks written on it.... go figure .... so if you recieve a check in the mail remember if it sounds too good it is ..... check the bank do not cash it ... thanks

Howard, we really need to get the word out on this one. I am not sure where to post it right now. Here is one forum talking about and checking up on scammers.
